Sweet - this won't even interfere with the Falcons schedule since their season will be over by then. But, If possible, I would recommned an earlier start time for the day as it would be great to get home for the 4PM games. IMO a 7AM 1st round start would be awesome..But it's all good - thanks in advance for the action Jason!!

The term "Hobo" is a bit insensitive. I think the phrase "financially challenged" is a bit more accepted nowadays. The kids should be applauded to help out people who have had a bit of bad luck. I am sure the residents appreciate a warm and dry place to sleep.

Wondering if the new access road wil be played as OB. I think it would be sweet if you made it OB for being over the silt fence on 6 and for being on the new road on 15. I vote for bringing back the old OB line on 2 as well. Just sayin'

Eventually, the trail behind 6's basket will have to be OB, once it's open to the public. According to Mark Holder, the RRPD's long-term plan is to plant Leyland cypress or some sort of screening bushes along the side of the trail nearest the basket. It's Bradshaw's call whether to make it OB for LITW. We may also eventually install an alternate pin position on 6 -- the space between the trail and the current position is pretty tight as it is, and the basket can't move any closer to the tees along the current line of play -- it'd be right up against the pair of trees.

I agree that the leveling out of the area to the left and behind the pin on 15 changes the character of the hole, and likewise am concerned about how things will play out once the path opens -- even as OB, it seems like the path is too close to the basket for safety without something to stop drives that go long and left. And I'm not sure what can be done about it -- there's not much room to work with between the path and the black tee pad for 16. Given that the path won't be open before LITW, however, my vote would be for leaving it as is for now.

I expect we'll be discussing all of this Tuesday night at the RDGC BOD meeting.

#2 - In the creek bed. Creek will probably be dry.#4 - On top of Trailers, on top of Building.#6 - Beyond silt fence.#10 - Paved walking path and Beyond#11 - Paved walking path and Beyond, OB line between #11 and #17. MANDO left of Oak.#12 - Dirt Pond#15 - Path and Beyond#17 - OB line between #11 and #17.

Can you add me to the wait list please? Derek Robins PDGA #5980 Kenilworth, England. Like to play Pro Open (or Masters)

My friend Chris O'Brien (who was sensible enough to register in good time) and I are flying into Atlanta on Thursday and probably looking to play some courses in the area on Friday and Saturday, so if anybody is around and about and happy to show us a local course or two that would be great. I'll check this tomorrow, otherwise send message to discgolf at the domain ntlworld.com.

Derek, there will probably be several of us around East Roswell Park (the venue for Lost In The Woods) on Saturday morning, doing some course prep and probably getting a round in while we're there. If you think you'll be heading there then, send an e-mail to info@roswelldiscgolf.org and I'll try to hook you up with someone to show you around ERP.

Tournament Parking will be to the left of the community center where the batting cages used to be. There is a path from the parking lot to Tournament Central.

Parking and Tournament Central locations on map (click to enlarge).

Also, the restrooms at the pavilion are under repair and are currently closed -- they may not be open again by the weekend. In that event, biological imperatives may be attended to at the restrooms in the center of the tennis courts. Note that the Rec Center building is closed on Sundays.

I don't know -- I just learned about it a few minutes ago when my son came back from playing a practice round with pix of it. I'll check in the morning with the RRPD, but I wouldn't expect it to move by then.

Great news for those of us who favor that side of the fairway on #7!Re: OB on the new walkways, my vote is "no" for right now. I don't think they will be in play too much for the few holes they affect. Our tax dollars at work.

RRPD says they'll get the dumpster moved today.

According to the RRPD, the dumpster has been moved as far as possible toward Holcomb Bridge, away from the fairway, but it's still out there -- muddy conditions made it impractical to move it out completely. Look for updated info at the player's meeting on special ground rules for this.
